[THEME MUSIC]

-[SINGING] It's a beautiful
day in this neighborhood,

a beautiful day for a neighbor.

Would you be mine?

Could you be mine?

It's a neighborly day
in this beautywood,

a neighborly day for a beauty.

Would you be mine?

Could you be mine?

I have always wanted to have
a neighbor just like you.

I've always wanted to live
in a neighborhood with you.

So let's make the most
of this beautiful day.

Since we're together, we might
as well say, would you be mine?

Could you be mine?

Won't you be my neighbor?

Won't you please,
won't you please,

please won't you be my neighbor?

Hello, neighbor.

I'm glad we're
together again today.

Did you see this?

This is a potty for a child.

Mm-hmm.

See that?

All together there.

Yeah.

Do you know anybody
who uses one of these?

Have you ever used one of these?

I did when I was a child.

Now, I use a bigger toilet.

And I think I'll
just show you mine.

I'll take this child's
potty and this book

that I brought into
the bathroom with me.

And I'll just show
you my toilet.

Come along.

Now, here's my toilet.

And I'll just put
this one down here

so that we can compare them.

See?

This one's the one I use now,
and here is the child's potty.

You know, it's a very important
time in children's lives

when they're able to start going
to the potty all by themselves.

Are you able to go to
the potty yourself?

That's a big gift, you know.

Well, I brought this
book with me today.

It's a book about
going to the potty.

And I think the bathroom
is a good place to read it.

It's called "The Potty Book."

As a matter of fact
here, I just wanted

you to see a girl
and her dad, and they

have a potty chair there.

Yeah.

OK.

Here we go.

"The Potty Book."

I'm going to need my glasses.

Here.

"When babies are
little, there are

many things they can't
do by themselves.

They can't get
dressed by themselves.

They can't even
eat by themselves.

There are lots of
things their moms

and dads need to do for them.

Babies wear diapers, and some
diapers are made of cloth,

and some are made of
paper and plastic.

Sometimes they
feel warm and dry,

but sometimes diapers
get wet and messy

and have to be changed.

The paper diapers
are thrown away.

But the cloth diapers get
washed and used again.

Changing diapers
is another way moms

and dads take care
of their children.

When babies grow older, they
begin to do lots of things

by themselves.

They learn how to
feed themselves

and how to wash and get dressed.

They learn new
ways to play, too.

Sometimes they like
to make pictures

with crayons or with
their hands and paint.

Something else
children learn as they

grow is how to urinate and do
bowel movements in the potty

instead of in their diapers.

Urine and BMs come
out of our bodies.

There are thing our
bodies don't need."

Oh, there's a picture
that was on the cover.

"That's my moms and dads
might like to give them

a special kind of
chair to begin with.

It could be a seat that
fits on the toilet.

Now, it takes a
while to get used

to sitting on one of
these special seats.

At first, it may feel
a little hard and cold.

But that only lasts
for a few minutes.

And then it feels fine."

That little girl has her
favorite toy with her there.

"When you feel ready, you may
be able to urinate and make

BMs under the potty chair
or right in the toilet.

Children need to take their
time about things like that.

Learning to wipe yourself
clean can be hard at first.

Often, moms and dads have to
help with that for a while.

When you first start
trying to go to the potty,

you may find it hard
to get there on time.

Some children wet or
mess in their pants

now and then before they really
get used to going to the potty.

Learning to stay
clean and dry is

one way to please your
mom and dad, and you."

Look how pleased she is.

"It's a good feeling to
know that moms and dads like

helping their children to grow.

There's so much to learn
while they're growing.

And everyone needs
help from time to time.

But soon, you may be wearing
underpants and staying

dry all day and all night, too.

What's more, you'll
have learned to do

something new all by yourself.

And you and the people
who love you best

can be really proud of
the way you're growing."

You know, when I
was just starting

to go to the potty
myself, I remember

my dad gave me some pennies.

Let's see if I have
some pennies, here.

Yeah, I have a lot
pennies right there.

My dad gave me some
pennies like this.

And I used to drop the
pennies in a little bucket

that I played with.

It was a bucket
kind of like this.

Yep.

And I would drop the
pennies in, like this.

As I was sitting
on the toilet, I

would just drop
those pennies in.

Somehow, that helped me.

I always remember that.

Yeah.

And I'll always
remember the first time

I sang the song "You Can
Never Go Down the Drain."

My son seemed so relieved.

You know, there are lots
of drains in a bathroom.

Oh, one of them is in the sink.

Here.

This little drain in the sink.

See the water going
down the drain?

And there's one in the bathtub.

That one there.

Watch the water
go down the drain.

And of course, there's
one in the toilet.

There's the drain there.

And I'll just flush it.

You can see.

See it going down?

But no person could ever go
down any of those drains.

People are much too big to
go down any bathroom drain.

Let's sing that song together.

[SINGING] You can never go
down, can never go down,

can never go down the drain.

You can never go down,
can never go down,

can never go down the drain.

You're bigger than the water.

You're bigger than the soap.

You're much bigger
than all the bubbles,

and bigger than your telescope.

So you see, you can never
go down, can never go down,

can never go down the drain.

You can never go down,
can never go down,

can never go down the drain.

The ran may go down,
but you can't go down.

You're bigger than
any bathroom drain.

You can never go down,
can never go down,

you can never go down the drain.

It's important to remember that,
especially when you're taking

a bath or when you're sitting
on a big people's toilet.

You can never go down
a bathroom drain.

Mm-mmm.

[PHONE RINGING]

-I think that's
the phone ringing.

I think it is.

Yeah.

Take this in.

Hello?

Oh, hi, Mr. McFeeley.

Yes.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, well there's no hurry.

Well, thank you very much.

Great timing.

All right.

See you later.

Bye-bye.

That was Mr. McFeeley.

He thinks he can
bring us a videotape

of people making toilets.

I've wondered how
people do that.

And he said he'd bring it later.

In the meantime, let's just
have some make-believe.

Get the trolley.

Come on, trolley.

[TROLLEY BELL]

-Let's make-believe
that somebody

has a toilet or a bucket
or something like that,

and Lady Aberlin
helps them with it.

All right?

To the Neighborhood of
Make-Believe, trolley.

[TROLLEY BELL]

-Now, what were you
saying about this bucket?

-Oh, nothing.

-Well, it must be something
if you're sad about it.

-Well, I thought my
dad would like it.

-You mean, the bucket?

-No.

What I do with the bucket.

-What do you do with it?

-I go up there and
I throw balls in it.

-All the way up there?

-Yes.

And I'm very careful.

-Would you show
me how you do it?

-Sure.

You hold the bucket,
and I'll get the balls.

Phone.

Are you ready?

-Whenever you are.

-OK.

-Ball one!

-Wow!

That's wonderful.

-Ball two!

[WHISTLES]

-OK, watch this one.

[TRUMPET FANFARE]

-Uh, oh.

-Uh, Niece Aberlin, I presume.

-Correct as usual, Uncle Friday.

-And what are you doing to
improve the universe this day?

-Oh, let's see, I'm, um-- I'm--
I'm appreciating the things

that people send
me through the air.

-And what kind of things?

-Oh, words and music
and flying balls.

-Did you say flying balls?

-Ah, yes.

I did.

You have very good
ears, Uncle Friday.

-Is Tuesday pitching
those balls again?

Where is he?

-I guess he's gone.

Your son is a phenomenal
pitcher, Uncle Friday.

-He should be involved
in serious work,

not pitching balls.

-But, the better
he learns to pitch,

the better he'll be
able to do other work.

-Too much foolishness
around here.

Farewell, Miss Aberlin.

-Farewell, Uncle Friday.

I trust that you'll remember
that Tuesday is just a boy.

-It's never too soon to
learn to be a great man.

Farewell.

-Farewell.

-See what I mean?

-I do see.

Well, I, for one, am very
proud of your pitching.

And whenever you need a
catcher, I'm available.

-Thank you, cousin.

I'm going to school now.

-OK, see you later, Tuesday.

And be of good courage.

-Thanks.

-I wonder why Uncle
Friday doesn't

like pitching bucket balls.

BETTY: Yoo-hoo
Yoo-hoo, Lady Aberlin.

Dear!

-That sounds like Betty
Oakenack Templeton.

BETTY: Ah, yoo-goo dear,
over at the museum.

-It is Betty Oakenack Templeton.

Why, Betty, how good to see you.

How wonderful.

-Do you know where
Laney is, hon?

-Lady Elaine?

-Yes.

I've been calling her on the
telephone for three days,

and finally I just said to
myself, and anybody else who

was close by, I just
said, well you've

got to go see what's
going on with Laney.

I mean, it's not like her
not to answer her phone,

especially when she has
call waiting and all.

You know what I mean, hon?

-You haven't heard from
Lady Elaine in three days?

-Precisely.

She didn't go
away, did she, hon?

-Oh, I don't think so.

Lady Elaine?

Lady Elaine Fairchild?

-Uh, Laney?

[BELL RINGING]

-Lady Elaine, are you in there?

Lady Elaine?

-Laney?

-Lady Elaine?

-Do you know something?

-Oh!

Robert Troll, you startled me.

-Oh, I'm sorry.

I just wondered if
you lost something.

-We can't find Lady
Elaine Fairchild.

-Really?

-It's the strangest thing,
Robert Troll I've been trying

to call Laney, and
lo, these many days

and nights and all
times in between,

and you know with
call waiting and all,

you'd think she'd
answer, wouldn't you?

-Oh, yeah.

Well-- you mean
she didn't answer?

-No.

-Well, I think I'd
better talk to the people

at the castle about this.

-And Robert Troll
and I will start

knocking on all the doors
inside this big place.

You'll help me, won't
you, Robert Troll?

-Oh, sure, hon, I'd be glad to--

-You know, when you're
on a mission like this,

you long for companionship,
someone to talk with

and to share the gifts
of fun and friendship.

You know what I mean.

-Oh, oh yeah.

-Well, OK then, hon.

We'll get busy knocking
on all these doors.

See you, Lady A.

-Farewell, and-- and you will
keep me posted, won't you?

-I was just going to say that.

-Oh, yes, good.

-OK.

-Do.
-I will.

-All right, let's go, hon.

We'll knock on all these doors.

-I wonder where Lady Elaine is.

[TROLLEY BELL]

-Oh, trolley, have you
seen Lady Elaine Fairchild?

[TROLLEY BELL]

-We're all going to
have to look for her.

[TROLLEY BELL]

-Oh, yes.

Thank you, trolley.

[TROLLEY BELL]

-Where do you think
Lady Elaine might be?

Do you suppose she's hiding?

Or maybe she went for a walk.

You could make up your
own story about that.

Or anything else in
Make-Believe, where anything

can happen because
it's all pretend.

Do you ever pretend things?

Well, I think we need
to feed the fish.

The fish are not pretend.

No, the fish are real.

And they need food.

Beautiful fish.

Let's look at them real quietly.

Let's watch them go
around and around.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

-Oh, there's
somebody at the door.

Let's see who that is.

Oh, maybe it's Mr. McFeeley.

It is.

Come in, Mr. McFeeley.

-Speedy delivery to you.

Here's the tape that you wanted.

-Thank you very much.

How people make toilets.

Now these are regular-sized
adult toilets.

-That's right.

-Do you have time
to watch it with us?

-I do.

I'll watch it with you, and I'll
explain it to you as we watch.

-Good.

I've often wondered how people
in factories make toilets.

-This tape will show
you how they do it.

-Very good.

We'll all watch together.

How people make toilets.

MR. MCFEELEY: This man is
putting funnels into molds that

will help make the bottom
part of the toilet.

MR. ROGERS: Funnels?

MR. MCFEELEY: That's right.

MR. ROGERS: He'll be pouring
things into the funnels,

I guess.
MR. MCFEELEY: Mm-hmm.

Liquid clay.

There it is.

MR. ROGERS: Liquid clay?

MR. MCFEELEY: That goes
into those toilet molds.

MR. ROGERS: Well,
what's he doing here?

MR. MCFEELEY: Well,
he's checking the clay

to make sure it's
just right, not

too thick, and not too thin.

MR. ROGERS: Is he weighing that?

MR. MCFEELEY: That's right.
That's what he's doing.

He's weighing it
just to be sure.

Now, the clay gets poured by
this machine into the funnels,

and then it goes down
into the toilet mold.

MR. ROGERS: It's like
a double hose, there.

Filling up the funnels.

MR. MCFEELEY: Now, when
the clay has dried,

these men take the
top of the mold off.

There it goes.

Next, the rim will be put on.

MR. ROGERS: Is that
the toilet in there?

MR. MCFEELEY: Well,
that's part of it.

MR. ROGERS: What are
they doing with it here?

MR. MCFEELEY: They're putting
on some very thick clay

around the top edge of the bowl.

It's like glue, and
it will help hold

the rim and the bowl
of the toilet together.

See, on go the rims.

MR. ROGERS: Looks like
they're molds, too.

MR. MCFEELEY: Oh, that's right.

Now they need to dry together.

MR. ROGERS: The bowl and
the rim dry together, huh?

MR. MCFEELEY: Mm-hmm.

And when the rim and the
bowl are firmly together,

the workers will
take off the molds.

First the rim molds.

And now, off with
the rest of the mold.

But first they have to turn
the whole thing upside down.

Watch this.

MR. ROGERS: They must be heavy.

MR. MCFEELEY: Oh, they are.

You see, first they take off
the bottom part, and then

the sides, one side,
and then the other side.

MR. ROGERS: Of the mold.

MR. MCFEELEY: That's right.

MR. ROGERS: Why are
they wearing masks?

MR. MCFEELEY: Oh, that's to
protect their noses and mouths

from the dust that's in the air.

MR. ROGERS: Is it
finished already?

MR. MCFEELEY: Oh, not quite.

Now they have to be glazed.

MR. ROGERS: Glazed?

You mean, like painted?

MR. MCFEELEY: Yes.

The glaze gives their
toilets their color

and makes them smooth and shiny.

This man uses a sprayer
to put on the glaze.

And he also wears a
mask and safety glasses

to keep the glaze from
getting into his eyes,

his nose, and his mouth.

MR. ROGERS: That's important.

MR. MCFEELEY: It certainly is.

And now the bowls go
through this machine

that sprays on more
glaze all by itself.

MR. ROGERS: That's fun to watch.

MR. MCFEELEY: It is.

MR. ROGERS: Now they're
traveling someplace else.

MR. MCFEELEY: Mm-hmm.

Now, this man takes the bowls
off this hanging carrier

and loads them onto big cars
that travel through the factory

on tracks, sort of like trains.

They load the car with toilet
bowls and push it into a kiln.

MR. ROGERS: A kiln?

That's like an oven, isn't it?

MR. MCFEELEY: That's right.

You see, the clay
needs to be baked

so that it'll be
strong and hard.

MR. ROGERS: And

MR. MCFEELEY: That's right.

MR. ROGERS: --a
while, don't they?

MR. MCFEELEY: Well,
now they're coming out.

And when the baking is finished,
and the toilets have had time

to cool off, this man
attaches the t*nk to the bowl.

You'll see.

There's the t*nk.

Onto the bowl.
MR. ROGERS: The t*nk?

That's the part that holds
the water for the flushing.

MR. MCFEELEY: That's right.

Then he puts on the
lid for the t*nk.

And finally, the seat.

MR. ROGERS: What's he doing now?

MR. MCFEELEY: Well,
he wants to make

sure it flushes just right.

He fills the t*nk with
water from this pipe,

and then he flushes.

MR. ROGERS: Looks like
it works just fine.

MR. MCFEELEY: Oh, it does.

And that's how
people make toilets.

-That is very interesting.

So many things that go
into making a toilet?

-That's right.

-Wow.

Thank you for that
delivery, Mr. McFeeley.

-Well, I enjoy making
speedy deliveries.

In fact, [SINGING]
that's what you'll get,

that's what you'll get, a
speedy, speedy, delivery.

A speedy, speedy,
speedy, speedy delivery.

-You say a lot of
speedies in that song.

-A lot of speedies.

-I wonder how many you say.

Ah, would you sing it again?

-I'll sing, and you count.

-All right.

-Here we go.

[SINGING] That's
what you'll get.

That's what you'll get.

A speedy, speedy delivery.

A speedy, speedy,
speedy, speedy delivery.

-That's six.

-Six speedy deliveries.

Well, I have another
one to make right now,

so I'll just say, see you
around the neighborhood!

-All right, Mr. McFeeley,
and thank you again.

-You're quite welcome.

Goodbye!

[SINGING] That's what you get.

That's what you get.

Mr. McFeeley is giving
us lots of deliveries.

There's so much to learn, and
so much to do in this world.

You know, I'm very glad that
you and I are neighbors.

And we can think and do
a lot of things together.

[SINGING] It's such a good
feeling to know you're alive.

It's such a happy feeling,
you're growing inside.

And when you wake
up ready to say,

I think I'll make
a snappy new day.

It's such a good feeling,
a very good feeling,

the feeling you know that I'll
be back when the day is new,

and I'll have more
ideas for you.

And you'll have things
you'll want to talk about.

I will too.

We always have lots of things
to talk about and do together,

don't we?

What was it that
I brought today?

That little toilet.

Yeah, the little potty.

Where is it?

It's over here.

I must take it
back to its owner.

And the book, too.

I'll be back next time.

Goodbye!
